DEFTONES Frontman Performs 'Roots' With CAVALERA CONSPIRACY; Video Available

August 21, 2009

DEFTONES frontman Chino Moreno joined CAVALERA CONSPIRACY — the new project featuring SEPULTURA founding members Max (guitar, vocals) and Igor Cavalera (drums) alongside SOULFLY guitarist Marc Rizzo — on stage yesterday (Thursday, August 20) at the Pukkelpop festival in Hasselt, Belgium to perform the SEPULTURA classic "Roots Bloody Roots". Watch fan-filmed video footage of Chino's guest appearance below (courtesy of "cdude666").

"Inflikted", the debut album from CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, sold 9,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at No. 72 on The Billboard 200 chart.

Johny Chow (a.k.a. John Mark Bechtel; FIREBALL MINISTRY, SOULS OF WE, ex-SYSTEMATIC, MY RUIN) was recruited by CAVALERA CONSPIRACY to play bass for the group as the replacement for Joe Duplantier of the French progressive death metallers GOJIRA. Duplantier, who laid down all the bass tracks on CAVALERA CONSPIRACY's debut album, "Inflikted", was busy in the studio working on the new GOJIRA CD and was unable to join CAVALERA CONSPIRACY on the road.

Chow played his first show with CAVALERA CONSPIRACY on May 30, 2008 at the Electric Weekend in Madrid, Spain.
